IS Prison No Less Than Hell For Captured Women

Women arriving at the jail are given two choices: convert to Islam and be sold off for between $25 and $150, or refuse and be subjected to rape and slow death. Those who have escaped Badush Prison in Mosul, northern Iraq, say that the number of women held there could be in the thousands. Many of these women include Christians and Turkomens, which is a largely Muslim group closely related to the Turks.

Survivors say beauticians are brought in to put makeup on the women. Some victims were forced to call their families after to explain what had happened.
